Biological control, as a key component of biointensive IPM in cowpea, is evaluated for its practical feasibility. The case study of one of the major insect pests, the bean flower thrips Megalumthrips sjosredti (Trybom) (Thysanoptera, Thripidae), is used to indicate the most important criteria for...

Farmers of rainfed cowpea/groundnut/millet/sorghum cropping systems in Kano, Nigeria, ranked arthropods as the major production constraint in cowpea and groundnut in 1991 and 1992. At least 25% of the farmers also reported severe infestations by Striga gesneroides a parasitic weed of cowpea. Drou...
